... before and had never really seen the point. Here was a pretty good place to start though and I really enjoyed finding all these exotic fish and chasing after them. I was a little dissappoointed that i didn't see any (non-aggressive) sharks, moray eels or octupii but that just leaves them for another time. The coral was beautiful and it felt like another adventure. Another day we went to some waterfalls, led by a grumpy guide who left us there. The falls were very nice and ...

Tobago celebrates Easter by holding their famous (to them) goat races. When we got there i was worried to hear that the goats had jockeys. Fortunately for the goats though, the comical image of a full grown man on a goat was left to my imagination as the jockeys had to run alongside their goat to steer them and spur them on. It was all very fun after a few beers and the comentators ...

... and she mentioned they might want to meet me too. i arrive on thursday call them on friday morning and by friday afternoon we're having a gorgeous local lunch and having a great time. i'm told to get some rest "cos tonight we lime". ummm, ok. when they pick me up my attire dictates that we can't go to a club (clubs require fancy clothes, i have on the backpacker's special) so we head to a jazz bar and have some drinks ...

... not ripen until we have left. We were looking for some limes for drinks and discovered that not only do they not have limes as we know them, but "lime" more often means "party." When you hear liming, or lime it is always referring to a party or get together and not a fruit. As for double double...in Canada to patrons of Tim Horton's it means one thing...in Trini and Tobago it means ...

... and would be even moreso if there was sun! However, this notion that Englishmens' is one of the best in the whole Caribbean is a bit much...it's not even close to Vieques and many other Virgin Islands for example... We are trying to remain up beat but we're soggy and mosquito bitten!

3 Taeg haemmer ois am am Carnivalstress welle entzieh und sind z'Tobago an Strand. Das isch wie scho gseit d'Nachbarinsle vo Trinidad. Det gits luuter paradiesischi Sandstraend, viel Sunne und feins Aesse... mmm.... Aber lueged doch d'Bilder saelber ah...

... and hopefully stay at one of his places on the island. Instead, we met Leroy, a customs officer/taxi driver/hotelier who offered us a place to stay by the airport for okay money. He also told us Big Mitch had died from cancer not too long ago, which was sad news. Got to the apartments and Leroy charged us for the cab ride, which was a suprise to everybody except Leroy. Next day we head out to look around Crown Point, the main tourist area and commercial centre of the island ...

"Wamnow, dreds?" - Trinidadian equivalent for 'What´s up, guys?' or 'How´s it hanging, dudes?' or 'What significant happenstances have in recent times occurred, my fellow friends and peers?' Well, as for this dred - waaay back in mid-May - I was invited by Dexter´s nice mom, Sandra, to spend a week with her family (minus Dexter) in Tobago. And being a free-loader, I of course accepted.
